>Sheila E. Murphy (Phoenix), John M. Bennett
>(Columbus, OH), Scott Helmes (Minneapolis, MN),
>and K.S. Ernst (NJ) will perform as the BE BLANK
>CONSORT in Prescott, AZ with innovative and improvisational poetry.
>
>..:::::A statement from the poets:::::..
>THE BE BLANK CONSORT was born in June 2001 at
>the Atlantic Center for the Arts (New Smyrna
>Beach, Florida) when all of its members were
>part of a literary residency convened by Richard
>Kostelanetz. We are all writers, but we all use
>language in greatly expanded and often
>completely new ways and contexts. THE CONSORT
>was formed to perform various kinds of texts and
>visual texts, many of them created
>collaboratively, in ways that would reveal new
>resonances and possibilities in them. Some of
>the pieces are poems written by one of us and
>scored for multiple voices by another. A few are
>entirely written and scored by one person. Many
>more were written in collaboration between two
>or more of the performers and others. Scott
>Helmes, in January 2002, initiated the first
>poems specifically designed for performance by
>THE CONSORT and many have followed since,
>created by all the members. THE CONSORT has
>performed numerous times in Miami, New York,
>Columbus, Minneapolis, and other venues, and has
>released a CD, SOUND MESS: + OTHER POEMS.
>
>Much of K.S. (Kathy) Ernst's visual poetry is
>painted, collaged, or digital. In addition, she
>uses three-dimensional letters in freestanding
>sculptures. She was born in St. Louis, MO, but
>spent most of her life about an hour from New York City.
>
>John M. Bennett has exhibited and performed his
>word art worldwide, and has published over 200
>books of poetry; among the most recent are LA M
>AL (Blue Lion Press) and CANTAR DEL HUFF (Luna
>Bisonte Prods). He is Curator of the Avant
>Writing Collection at the Ohio State University Libraries.
>
>Sheila E. Murphy is the author of numerous books
>of poetry, most recently CONTINUATIONS
>(collaboration with Douglas Barbour) from The
>University of Alberta Press. Her home is in Phoenix.
>
>Scott Helmes's professional activities have been
>mainly in the fields of architecture and
>education. Starting in 1972, he began writing
>experimental poetry and pursuing mail art
>activities and artistic printmaking/drawings.
>His writing archive from 1972 to 1997 is in the
>Avant Writing Collection of the Ohio State University Libraries.
